Have Faith in Duiuth,s Team.

Mayor Sutphin, Aid. Eaton and Kendall,
E. D. Howard, Richard Fagan, N. B.
Thayer and Jay W. Anderson, of Duluth.
were in the city yesterday OIL their way to
New York. They will stop at Cleveland
and see the Duluth nine. The party will
be gone but a few days. Mr.. Anderson, in
conversation with GLOBE reporter, said:
The people of Duluth are more enthusiastic
than ever oyer base ball, and they will back
her nine for any reasonable amount Duluth
will have fine grounds this season. and. more
than that, motor cars are to be run directly
to the grounds. We have implicit faith in
Manager Lucas, and know that he will select
the best men that he can get. Last year he
gave us winning nine when there was
limit on the salaries, and this year we think
he has signed lot of men that will win the
pennant. AXE, second baseman. and Kemm-
Ter, catcher, of the St. Louis Maroons, have
already been signed. and now he is figuring
for King, the pitcher of the same nine. On
the whole, believe we have good reason for
thinking that we will have the winning nine
this year. The club will play through Ohio
and Michigan this month and will open the
season at Oshkosh April 80.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, April THE Browns
and Chicagos played the first of their thild
series of games for the worlds champion
ship to-day, and Chicago won. The
visitors were in fair form while the Browns
were in bad shape. Latham will not be

sore hand which spoilS both his batting and
fielding. AS a consequence the betting be-
fore the game was SO to $40 on the Chi

anu there was intense excitement. The
Browns had the lead until the eighth in
ming, and then lost through a fortunate
punching of hits by the visitors and two
bad errors The hits and errors were eX-
actly even on both sides. FoutZ pitched
finely for six innings. having the
visitors at his mercy. ClarkSon was as
strong at the close as at the start. DAILY,
ChcagoS young catcher, did well. The
Browns scored in the first inning. After
two outs Welch got base on balls, went to
third Oh Comiskey'S hit and scored on
Pfeffers wild throw. Gleason scored in
the third. lie reached first on Williamson's
low throw, went to second
ON A BALK,
which also gave O'Neill his base, and scored
Oh WelchS two-bagger. O'Neill being put
out at the plate. The home club made its
best score in the Seventh. Sylvester made
a hit, stole second, went to third on Bush
ong's hit and scored on Daly's wild throw
to second. The Chicagos began batting in
this inning. AnSon opened with long
drive to left. 1t was O'Nelrs ball. but
Welch, the Browns great center fielder,
ran all the way from right center and came
near reaching the ball. Knowing that
O'Nelrs hands were sore, Comiskey called
f,r WEIGH. but the wind carried the ball
just out of reach. Pfetfer hit to Gleason,
who foolishiy tried to get Arson at third,
and both men were safe. Williamson's sac
rifice fly and Burns hit enabled both to
score. Sunday opened the next inning with
\ TWO-BAGGER
which CarrutherS should have captured, but
misjudged. Ryan's sacrifice hit sent him to
third and Sullivan hit to Robinson, who
foollshy tried to catch Sunday at the plate.
This tied the score and Sullivan was on
first Then big Anson started the ball on a
line over the right field fence but boy
seated on the fence reached up and caught
it, so that Anson made but two bases, Sui
livan scoring. Welchs error and William
sons hit gave two more runs. making Chi
cago's score six. These games are for the
worlds championship, merely on condition
both clubs win the championships in their
respective associations. something rather
doubtful. Still the greatest interest is being
taken i'll them in all parts Of the country
and many visitors from distance are
here. The same teams play tomorrow and

Others were building a dressing-room for
the players. which will be supplied with
lavatory and will be conveniently fur

rounded by wire screen, which will pre-
vent any ''fouf' from disturbing the fair
patrons of the national game. On the dia-
mond were Foster, Camel, Moriarity, Tuck
erman, Winkelman and Allen, taking their
daily practice. About twenty-five young

Foster, who talked of his men in a quiet
fashion seemingly born of deep faith in
their abilities.
From now on said Manager Foster, 'twe

The general opinion among railroad

the interstate commerce commission on the
long and short haul question, concerning
the Southern railroads, will crush the entire
measure. They argue that this is the most
vital feature of the entire act, and that the
stand taken by the commission, even though
it be of temporary nature, is the entering
wedge that will split the whole log. There
